Good, I hope it comes to PC. As many people as possible should get the chance to play excellent Sony 1st party games.

 

[Landford]

Oh my.

[ILikeFeet]

interesting move Sony is making

 

[Dinobot]

I can't wait for the meltdowns.

 

[Neoxon]

I guess Sony really is serious about putting their games on PC.

 

[oriic]

Any screenshot about LinkedIN profile?

edit:

Maybe a new game?

 

[Deleted member 4976]

It's a broad catch all posting.

The key word being or.

 

[_Gandour_]

Where does it say its for LoU 2?

 

[Amauri14]

Hot damn, I honestly wasn't expecting the move to include new games too!

[GrantDaNasty]

I wonder if MS moved the needle, or if this was a long-term idea from SCE.

 

[TSM]

This has to be heading towards a PSN store on PC? Porting all these games to PC doesn't make much sense otherwise.

 

[Lynchian Anomaly]

THE SONY BETRAYALATHON CONTINUES. IF LOU2 COMES TO PC GAMERS MUST UNIONIZE AGAINST SONYS CONSUMER PRACTICES.

 

[SunBroDave]

Don't worry I'm sure they'll wait to release the PC version until 3 years after the PS5 release

Spoiler

No series X exclusives, Sony bringing it games to PC, the rise of subscription services. The game industry business wise is changing very rapidly.

It's a job listing from Naughty Dog

There was an Nvidia employee about a week or so ago that posted they were visiting SIE. Looks like building out that infrastructure for PC games is well underway.

 

[Lightjolly]

Omfg. The scenes, the scenes!!!!!

 

[Betty]

So many people were positive Sony wouldn't be putting newer titles like this on PC.

welp!

 

[thuway]

Whew if Last of Us 2 goes day and date on PC - time to never buy a console again and stick to my rig.

 

[RoboPlato]

Wonder if this could be for the standalone MP game.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

NO

MY HEART

CANNOT

 

[Jack-O-Lantern]

[kadotsu]

TLoU may come to PC but this boilerplate job listing sure as shit isn't evidence.

 

[SilentFlyer]

My thoughts exactly. Could only be MP aspect of the game.

 

[SofNascimento]

That would be lovely.

 

[Zukuu]

They must have realized the same thing Microsoft did a while ago. PC is not a direct competition to consoles.

 

[karnage10]

I had a discussion in the other thead where i was called stupid and entitled for saying that sony should port their games to every platform possible. That excluding people is just anti-costumer.

I wonder how people will answer to the above if PS games do indeed start apearing to other platforms such as PC.

 

[Remark]

If TLOU2 got announced for PC...

Don't know if Era would survive the meltdowns.

 

[Skittles]

Woah, they want their graphics programmer to be familiar with modern GPUs? I for one, am shocked

 

[Saint-14]

What about the first one?

 

[nekkid]

Reading that posting makes it much clearer. They want that kind of experience, not that it's an indication of what you'll be doing.

 

[Champion]

2020 - PS4
2021 - PS5
2023 - PS+ and PSNow
2024 - PC

Get that money, Sony.

And where have you seen confirmation that new PS4 games are coming to PC?

You're right, but this thread is gonna be funny anyway.

Nah, bruh. There are some games I want to play Day 1. I'm not waiting 2 years to play TLOU 2 or H:ZD2.

Only if it's PC Day1 simul-release will I stop buying PS5s.

 

[Guymelef]

What if the delay was to have sp on PC day one as well?

 

[Xx 720]

So good a time to be a PC gamer!!!!

 

[Crossing Eden]

Take cover!

Sony invented moving games to PC /s

 

[Arkanius]

Could be for something else, but it's probably for a PC port of TLOU2

 

[Expy]

Probably just for the multi-player aspect, separate game (remember Sony said you could download which parts you wanted).

 

[Deleted member 4976]

People losing it over boilerplate job postings and terrible articles.

Angie22 nice avatar though!

That's a huge stretch, OP. Reads like many such ads. That piece is trash-tier bait.

Key word here is "or".

 

[blackMamba1187]

They've got me on the line for sure. I will re-buy most of Sony's games if they take the jump.

 

[Deleted member 3038]

If this happens ERA will literally crash

So I hope they do it
